Wellness
 

It鈥檚 easy to put off taking care of ourselves while we are busy with our multiple commitments and responsibilities. When that sense of feeling overwhelmed is constant, it's even more important to prioritize self-care. And while it may feel like 鈥渏ust one more thing鈥 to do, research shows that taking a walk, practicing yoga, or other stress reductions techniques such as mindfulness, can truly shift our mood and help us increase our immune system response.

QPR for Suicide Prevention

Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) suicide prevention training: This user-friendly online training is intended to equip all of us鈥攁dministrators, faculty, staff and students鈥攚ith the skills needed to identify and respond to a mental health crisis, much in the way that CPR training is designed to prepare people to respond to a cardiac event.

QPR training is brief; it takes about an hour to complete the course. Participants learn how to identify and safely engage with someone who may be having a mental health crisis, in order to direct them to assistance. The training is appropriate for a range of settings and relationships鈥攁t work, across campus, or at home, and in both personal and professional settings. The training does not require any clinical expertise, just a willingness to listen, care, and help.

You can participate in Question, Persuade, Refer training by accessing and using the organizational code SUNY. Participants will also receive a free copy  of Dr. Quinnett's eBook: "Suicide the Forever Decision."

WANT TO GET TRAINED IN QPR? Ask for the SUNY Access Code by emailing StudentLife@nccc.edu.
